RE: MIDRANGE-L digest, Vol 1 #359 - 12 msgs

IBM's taking the same shitty disks they're putting in ThinkPads (I've had
catastrophic disk failures in my last two ThinkPads, both less than 16
months old) and putting them into iBoxes.  This is very
discouraging...considering IBM invented Winchester technology, Big Blue has
had a remarkable series of disk manufacturing problems.
